| Description |
A house of illusions. Inside, live music is performed by a pianist and cellist as actors tango together. Between dances and songs, the a actors move to dressing areas at the edge of the stage, and prepare for a series of performances, given for the audience and for each other. A bishop hears the confession of a young penitent, and gives penance. A judge hears the testimony of the thief, who is consequently punished by an ominous masked figure. A camp commandant trains his 'horse' - a young woman who must be disciplined and ut through her paces. A woman sings soulfully in remembrance of times past. The thief sings for the camp commandant, and in reward is given the head of her torturer in a box. |
